### 2/5 — Serviu de nada

*2026-07-23*

Tudo pago

### 2/5 — No use without paymemt

*2026-05-17*

You can not use that app without paying, so making it free is just BS.

### 2/5 — 9.9dollar or nothing

*2026-02-05*

Price should be told earlier. Not when you get all my password

### 2/5 — Crippled

*2025-07-17, version 41.0*

The free app is so crippled it’s useless

### 5/5 — Excellent App

*2025-06-11*

This app does everything I need it to do. I use it to access a MySQL database for a personal project.

### 5/5 — потрясное приложение

*2025-05-15*

Вот совершенно не жалко денег,  красиво, быстро, аккуратно. DBEAVER отдыхает по удобству.

### 5/5 — Fantastische Software

*2025-04-04*

Ich habe alle PRO Features freigeschaltet. Es ist unfassbar wie gut die Software funktioniert. Sie lässt mir keine Wünsche offen. Ich finde sie besser als die Desktop Variante MySQL Workbench! Ich habe damit im Grunde phpMyAdmin + MySQL Workbench + DBEaver ersetzt. Eine Verbindung via SSH-Tunnel und PubKey Auth ist möglich.

### 2/5 — Useless without Pro

*2025-02-13*

Publishing this as a free app is a joke. Your functionality, without paying, is limited to connecting to the database. Anything beyond that, like accessing a table, user management, or anything really, requires that you pay. And for the rather basic functionality it provides, a payment is simply not warranted in my opinion.

### 5/5 — Best MySQL App

*2025-02-03, version 38.2*

This is the best MySQL  App I have used.

### 5/5 — The one to get!

*2024-11-17*

Simple yet powerful. Simple as in layout and straight to the point but not simple in functionality. There’s a lot to configure if you want. If you want to keep it simple you can. From beginner to power user so far I have to say this is it!  Hope updates are coming for it when needed. I’ll update this when and if needed.

### 5/5 — Page Size setting

*2024-10-12, version 36.1*

How can I set page size to unlimited records?

Please do not fill yr user n pw after save just view table ask for buy this app 999/-

### 1/5 — Pessima

*2025-10-18, version 42.0*

Quest’app non ti lascia fare nulla al tuo database se non aggiorni alla versione pro…

### 1/5 — Платный мусор

*2025-08-14, version 41.0*

Приложение неудобное, да еще и не смог отредактировать таблицу бесплатно

### 1/5 — 😄

*2025-04-15*

Already paid, but prompted to pay again after switching the app store region, and unable to access previously purchased features.

**Developer response:** You can restore previous purchases from the same user in the App Settings (within the app). If you have any issues please contact our support from the app.

### 1/5 — Who knows

*2025-01-11*

Can’t do anything meaningful without paying. No info on website. Support?  Explanations?  What are “views”?  Can you make forms that pull in info from multiple tables?  Just no idea.

**Developer response:** This application does not provide MySQL documentation because its comprehensive website alone suffices. Currently, it is not possible to create customized forms, but there is a simplified user interface for inserting or modifying single records in tables. For further information about the application’s usage, please contact the support team within the application.

### 1/5 — No Demo?

*2024-12-24*

This app used to be handy for checking a table once in a while. You can’t even demo it anymore.

I’m all for paying for a service, but there’s not even a way to view a table.

**Developer response:** Hello, if you have paid for the full app and you have some issue with it, please contact the support. Demo connection is still available but only with specimen data.

### 1/5 — Can’t save is dumb

*2024-08-26, version 36.1*

Workbench is open source

### 1/5 — Péssimo

*2024-08-08*

Não conecta e pra salvar tem que pagar.

### 1/5 — This App is kind of a scam.

*2024-07-09*

Without buying the Pro package, this App is utterly useless.

Posting this as a free App in the current form is just hilarious.

### 1/5 — Just doesn’t work

*2023-10-25*

Entered exact credentials for my DB on the same network it failed to connect. Tried pasting in the URL and it failed to populate any data. This was all after paying for premium so I could even save the connections. Just can’t recommend supporting this app at this time

**Developer response:** A common problem with connection in local network is that the MySQL user is not granted for connection in different IP.

### 5/5 — Best MySQL Client for iOS

*2026-05-03*

I’ve purchased the Pro versions for both the MySQL and PostgreSQL clients. They’re easily the most visually polished tools I’ve used, without compromising on functionality. These have become my primary applications for day-to-day database maintenance.

The developer is responsive and actively engaged, bug reports are addressed quickly, and support requests receive timely, helpful replies.

### 5/5 — Chart Issue

*2026-02-10*

The chart selection doesn’t allow you to select a chart in CarPlay Widgets.

### 5/5 — Worth it

*2026-02-04, version 43.0*

Very usefull when lazy to open laptop lol

### 5/5 — Fantastico

*2025-12-06, version 42.0*

10 euro spese benissimo. Mi capita spesso di dover fare interventi fuori ufficio e questa app è una salvezza.

### 5/5 — Useful widgets on home screen

*2025-11-06*

Connects to my MySQL 5.7 database easily and lets me quickly manage my database from my iPad. Having the graphs as widgets is a great feature! I wish there was just a “Big Number” graph/widget where it just showed a title and a statistic in the future.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! Additional widgets are under development, please stay tuned

### 5/5 — Amazing - Complete Desktop Client

*2025-10-31*

I really cannot say enough about this app.  It has every feature you would expect from a MySQL management app.  This is desktop quality.

### 5/5 — Einfach zu bedienen, viele Features

*2025-10-06*

Diese App lohnt sich auf jeden Fall, wenn man einen potenten und einfach zu bedienenden MySQL-Client für seine mobile Apple Flotte benötigt. Auch der Support ist bei technischen Rückfragen schnell erreichbar und kann kompetent weiterhelfen.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2025-08-23*

As a seasoned SQL Database Architect this app is very good. 

I can monitor my databases on the move and the app interface is elegant and functional with no clutter.

Highly recommended.

### 5/5 — Very intuitive

*2025-07-15*

I love being able to view my database from my phone while I am traveling. This makes my life way easier

### 5/5 — Großartig - jetzt auch auf Mac Silicon

*2025-06-17*

Herzlichen Dank für die Erweiterung auf Mac Silicon. Das hilft mir enorm. Vor allem weil auch alle Skripte synchronisiert werden können. Ein kleiner feiner Client!

**Developer response:** Die Version für Apple Silicon Macs ist jetzt verfügbar. Danke fürs Feedback!
